Craig Brandis

I’m pleased to tell you my new book of poetry, Crying of Small Motors, is now available from Finishing Line Press.  Here are some of the endorsements:  

“In Crying of Small Motors we hear a searingly honest voice that I come to poetry for…we trust the poet and follow him into increasingly strange, Tranströmer-like spaces: ‘Above the / small print / grasses, a horse’s / double field / of vision folds / the country / lengthwise.’ A mighty debut!” — John Wall Barger, author Smog Mother

“While reading each and every poem, I kept thinking to myself: Here is a poet, the real McCoy. Craig Brandis is a poet of work, for sure. He interrogates the industry, drudgery, grind, pains, and travails of what it’s like to swing a hammer for a living. But also, he is a poet of devotion and merriment and reverence for the same.” — David Biespiel, author A Place of Exodus

“It is intuitive to seek beauty in beautiful spaces, but these poems seek it in hard places, where the reward is more profound.” — Darren Morris, Poetry Editor Parhelion Literary Journal
